STATE SCHOOL AID BOOSTED 23% FOR SOM SCHOOLS

Looks like South Orange-Maplewood schools will get a 23% increase in state funding, according to figures released this week by the state. 

They come after Gov. Chris Christie announced he would boost school aid in his new budget.

The boost raises the state aid from $3,310,958 this current 2011-2012 school year to $4,075,898 for next school year, 2012-2013.

That is an increase of $764, 940 or about 23%.
